Chocolate Mousse Water

I made this in inspiration of this book called Like Water For Chocolate. This is easy and fast to make. You can add extra toppings to this (orange, strawberry, banana, etc.). I added strawberries to this to make it look more seductive and taste sweeter.

Ingredients:
*5 oz. of semi-sweet chocolate chips
*1/3 cup of water
*1/4 cup of chopped fruit (strawberries, oranges, etc.)

Directions:
1. Place in a pot and add water and chocolate.
2. Whisk over low heat until melted.
3. Gather 2 bowls. Fill one bowl with ice and water. Place another bowl on top and pour the chocolate mixture into the top bowl.
4. Begin whisking quickly. In approximately 2 to 3 minutes, the mixture will thicken up. Once it thickens up, decrease speed of whisking and stop when the chocolate becomes creamy and leaves a slight trail. If you over whip, it will stiffen and have a grainy ganache-like texture. To restart, melt it in a double boiler. Then begin whisking in an ice bath again.
                                                         5. Serve mousse in a small cup topped with fruits.

                                                            Enjoy!!!
